Millennium Aviation in Saskatoon is a pretty good FTU. I earned my private license there flying a Cessna 150. There is free ground school Thursday nights at their hanger. If you're ever in the area stop by maybe I'll see you there. Happy Flying!

+3 for millennium. Did a check out there while I was in stoon a while back, great group of guys. It's family run and you'll go up with the owners. Nice planes and a relaxed atmosphere. X wind landings are a daily chore out there.

What's wrong with the free groundschool? Is it not very good? Is it really ground school or just a refresher or is it just a random specific topic?

There is nothing wrong with ground school (as long as it's proper). It shouldnt be for "free".... That is like doing ground breifings for "free" :evil: I always charge for my breifings, and if they dont wish to pay for it, i dont do them, hence flight canceled!

You're confusing some concepts here. Just because its sold for "free" doesn't mean someone isn't being paid to give it.
